Under terms of the agreement, Diversinet will supply its Passport Certificate Server product to GlobalServe, and GlobalServe in turn will pay Diversinet a scaled license fee on a per user basis based on the number of certificates supplied. Citing the competitive nature of the industry, the companies declined to disclose financial terms of the agreement.

GlobalServe bills itself as the largest ISP in Canada with business and
residential customers in 15 markets. In addition, the company also provides related services such as network security consulting, virtual
private network (VPN) support, dial-up access, dedicated connectivity, site hosting, e-commerce transaction services, Web design and training.

"GlobalServe has chosen Diversinet's Passport Certificate
Server for the privacy and integrity of its solution," said Mr.
Robin Dua, president & CEO of GlobalServe. "Diversinet's revolutionary approach to using digital certificates separates the authorization credentials into permits distinct from authentication certificates."

"GlobalServe exposes Diversinet to a strong customer base that already has the demand for network security and we anticipate that this will create more opportunities for Diversinet in the North American market," said Nagy Moustafa, president & CEO of Diversinet Corp.
